Really lovely stay. I was working nearby and a solo traveller. Felt very welcome and safe. Lauren was so friendly showed me to my room and even offered to carry my very heavy bag. Food very good had the fish and Chips all cooked fresh. Room very clean and had everything I needed very cosy. Although on a busy main road hardly heard the traffic. I would highly recommend

This was a first class stay, I cannot fault the room, bar, and staff. A big shout to Lee and Sarah who I thought were totally brilliant, nothing was too much trouble. I will be staying there again when I am next up in the area.

Quaint as in very old inn that was clean with an old world charm to it. What was not appreciated is the dogs that are allowed in the restaurant. We had a dog begging for food next to us. It's also a matter of it being a health issue. At dinner three different dogs in and around us. None of these could we determine were service dogs. I should've black lighted our room to determine dog urine through out the room. It was late and the room was already paid for months in advance. so we bit our lips and stayed.

Overall a good hotel for our overnight stay,

Overall a good hotel for our overnight stay, staff attentive, two sets of steep stairs to get up to the bedrooms, (Maybe a problem for some) bedrooms clean & well equipped, shower ok but not a power shower and no grab rails which are needed. Good breakfast choices with well cooked using quality ingrediencies.

Nice setting, and charming building. Rooms were nice, but common areas and entrance to rooms felt a little unloved. Staff were very helpful, especially with my delayed arrival.

Loved it, would visit again!

Wanted to stay somewhere with a rural charm, and this did not disappoint! Staff very friendly and helpful. We did the half board which offered great value. Proper pub food, reasonably priced and excellent quality. Same can be said about breakfast. Great location to explore the area and walks nearby. Only slight downside were that the walls were quite thin so you could hear movements from neighbouring rooms.

Second time we have stayed here. Ate in the evening and had breakfast. The staff were very good and friendly and the food was excellent. We actually stayed in the same room on both occasions, was like going down memory lane. Would definitely stay again, if in the area.
